again, don't think anyone ships this, but whatever. and yeah, you guessed it. angst. prepare yourselves.

edaline's fingers faltered before she opened the book. she was attacked by a wave of memories - just sounds.

'eda?'

'yes, del?'

'wanna make a dream book?'

'what's that?'

a soft laugh.

'i just made it up, eda! we write our dreams down in a book! want to?'

'of course!'

edaline missed the days when she was eight.

she couldn't put it off any longer, so, with trembling fingers that betrayed her stone cold face, edaline opened the thick notebook.

OUR DREAM BOOK!

edaline smiled slightly at the childish handwriting. della had written it all, even edaline's dreams.

the dreams at the beginning were all completed.

Be the top in my class!  DONE

Get to middle school! DONE

and so on. as edaline turned the pages, the dreams and the handwriting got more mature.

Graduate from college - DONE

Get a job - DONE

not all of them were done.

Break a Guinness World Record - ______

but most were.

edaline got to the final pages of della's side of the book.

Come out to my family as lesbian - DONE

Come out to my friends as lesbian - DONE

Get my first girlfriend - DONE

Have my first kiss - DONE

edaline was overcome by another flood of memories. more sounds.

'eda.'

'yeah, del?'

'i have something to tell you.'

'yeah?'

'i think i- uh, i might- i, i kinda- oh, fuck it.'

silence.

'did you just-'

'are you... m-mad?'

'are you kidding me? no, of course not! kiss me again.'

edaline's vision blurred. she had told herself she wouldn't cry, but looking at della's two last dreams, wet splotches landed on the paper. she picked up her pencil and slowly crossed them out. the two dreams that would never happen, because of some stupid drunk driver.
